Ok, it was quick :) According to [1] and [2], the two expressions "/1/2" and
"xpointer(/1/2)" are *not* the same! While the first one is a correct shorthand
form, the second one (full form) does select a different node set.
The equvivalent full form for "/1/2" would be "xpointer(/*[1]/*[2])". You can find
an example with some explanations in [3].
